I recently bought an IBM Thinkpad 600E. While its an oldish machine, it was reasonably priced and works quite well.
I installed Win98 (which I still sometimes need, unfortunately) and 2.2r2 (most recent version I had to hand). The install went fine, and it works well (a good deal better than Win98 does). One problem I have hit is that Debian is only seeing 64 mb of RAM, not the full 128 that the machine has. I tried adding an 'append' to lilo.conf, but so far, any time that I have this in place, the machine locks up during boot (just after installing the floppy driver). I had to add an 'append="apm=on" since I haven't had time to recompile the kernel, which works fine. However, I do not seem to be able to get Debian to work with the machine's full memory. Both Windows and OS/2 see it (and OS/2, which is notoriously hard on memory works fine with the full 128mb). Can anyone suggest what I should be doing? While the machine works fairly well even only using 64 mb, I would like Debian to be able to use all the memory... paul. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Marwick Computer Services - Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire, UK OS/2, LAN and general Computer Consultants -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
